My name is Marcia Miller and I serve as Executive Director of Accelerated Wealth at two locations – Birmingham AL and Destin FL. In addition to being a Registered Financial Consultant, and Certified Estate Planner, I also am Series 65 licensed which qualifies me to serve as an Investment Advisor Representative. This designation holds me to a fiduciary commitment which means that regardless of your goals and dreams, whether you are a conservative investor or one that enjoys riding the roller coaster of the stock market, I am bound and committed to doing what is best for you. This is my entire reasoning for being an Independent Advisor. In fact, when I entered the financial industry over 25 years ago, with a major national company, I began to realize quickly that there was much more to this business than just selling “good” products. I knew that I had the potential to really make a difference in people’s lives but that wasn’t going to be possible unless I could give clients better choices in investment solutions. It was at that point, 13 years ago, that I decided to branch out as an Independent Advisor. This gives me the ability to search the open market to find the absolute top investments from the best companies, all ensuring that I am able to coach my clients towards maintaining their desired lifestyle at retirement while having financial peace of mind.

I live in Hoover, AL. I have 2 sons and 3 beautiful grandchildren. I enjoy spending time with my friends, family and traveling.
